gion deism and rationalism are twins polytheism â€” a belief in the-uni verse of god spinoza was a panthe ist and so was hegel a recent ger man philosopher unitarianism â€” a belief in the uni ty of god as opposed to the orthodox belief of a trinity in unity materialism â€” a belief that there is nothing but matter in the universe what we call mind and soul are to materialists only properties of matte 1 . of course materialists deny immortal ity to man death is annihilation of existence spiritualism â€” the opposite of ma terialism ; originally was a belief that all matter is really spirit and that therefore the universe is only god's concentrated thought latterly it means those who believe in the inter course with the spirit world fatalism â€” a belief that all events necessarily must

the rev mr dalton of high point preached here last sunday in the pres byterian church from the text sir 1 would see jesus during the ser mon he mentioned the case of a gen tleman who was extensively known throughout the state and doubtless well known to many of the present congregation for he was a good man the man was thought dead by all around his bed ; he was pulseless and could not wink an eyeor movea muscle and his breath had ceased when after a few minutts to the amazement of all he gave signs of life and actually recovered his health meeting this man some four weeks since mr dalton asked him if he was conscious of what was going on while in that condition lie replied yes he was conscious of aii that was going on in the room but said he my thoughts were not in my room for my eves were feasting on the most rapturous sight ever beheld upon this earth what did you see asked mr dal ton i saw the lord jesus christ said the gentleman and he declar ed that like paul's visions of the third heaven the half had not been told and that words could not begin to picture the grandeur of the world he seerred moating in he said it imparted a happiness to his heart unutterable and that he was perfectly miserable when he found himself breathing again and back into this life a child's dying dream â€” i was lo see a little girl nine years old at high point a few weeks ago said mr dallon whose mother before she died about a year ago asked me to overlook her daughter 1 said to the little girl : my child are you afraid to die oh no sir she replied lam not afraid to die : 1 went to heaven last night i reckoned she dreamed it said mr dalton oh no sir i'm not afraid to die i saw the angels come down the steps anil jesus came down and held out his hands to me and carried me up there and i saw mother no sir i want to go and live with mother it is a mystery the whereabouts of the spirit when to all appearances the frame is dead and yet not dead by the way we saw yesterday by the lei egraph the marriaga f a beautiful young lady in baltimore we forgot the name the belle of the city to a mr a'ivian xeale and yet a few years ago she was shrouded for dead and in her coffin and the hear.se at the door when she gave signs of life and today is a happy bride life life we are wonderfully made and yet the greater wonder is that we do not worship more the mighty iod that has so made us â€” reijsville times eating before sleeping man is tho only animal that can be taught to sleep quietly on an empty stomach the brute creation resent all efforts to coax them to such a vio lation of the laws of nature the lion roars in i lie forest until he has found his prey and when he has devoured it he sleeps until he needs another meal the horse will paw all night in t li 3 stable and the pig will squeel in the pen refusing all rest or sleep until they are fed the animals which chew their end have their own provi sions for a late meal just before drop ping off to their nightly slumbers man can train himself to the habit of sleeping without a preceding meal but only alter years of long practice as he come comes into the world na ture is too strong for him and he must be fed before he will sleep a child's stomach is small and when perfectly filled if no sickness disturbs it sleep follows naturally and inevit ably as digestion goes on the stom ach begins tn empty a single fold in it will make the little sleeper rest less two will waken it and if it is hushed again to repose the nap is short and three folds put an end to the slum ber paragoric or other narcotic may close its eyes again but without either food or some stupefying drug it will not sleep no matter how healthy it may be not even an angel who learned the art of minstrelsy in a ce lestial choir can sing a baby to sleep upon an empty stomach we use the oft-quoted illustration sleeping as sweetly as an infant be cause this slumber of a child follows immediately after its monach is com pletely tilled with wholesome food the sleep which comes lo adults long hours after partaking of food ami when the stomach is nearly or quite empty is not alter the type of infant ile repose there is all the difference in the world between the sleep of re freshment and the sleep of exhaustion to sleep well blood that swell the veins in the head during our busy hours must how back leaving a great ly diminished volume behind the brow that lately throbbed with such vehe mence to digest well this blood is needed at the stomach and nearer the fountains of life jt is a fact establish ed beyond a posibility of contradiction that sleep aids this digestion and that the process of digestion is conducive to refreshing sleep it needs no argu ment to convince us of its mutual re lation the drowsiness which always follows the well ordered meal is itself a testimony of nature to this inter-de pendence â€” v }'. journal of com merce safety on the cars how a noihl railroad is moving to secure comfort and safety for tract lers â€” some jlmuirka ble inventions the richmond cfc danville rail road which is now one of the best equipped roads south of baltimore is contemplating further improvements lor the safety and comfort of travelers and when they have secured all the proposed improvements it will be tin model railroad of the country the track is now laid with steel rails all the way to richmond and patent safety signal lamps guard every switch board along the entire line making travel and traffic more safe than it was several years ago as an evidence of the usefulness and re liability pf these safety signal switches it is stated that since they were put up not a ingle accident by open or misplaced switches has occurred any where along the line when formerly 1 such accidents were of frequent oc currence for tiie comfort of travel ers this summer and for all seasons to come the trains on this road are to be equipped with a late invention for arresting the smoke and dust it is claimed that the invention is a positive success the smoke and dust are caught by some nuvel ar rangement oi pipes and carried along under the cars escaping from under the platform of the rear car when this invention is put in practical use on the richmond it danville the sight of the old smoky dusty red-eyed set of travelers will be sadly missed by the hotel porters ami others whose habit it is lo meet them at the trains though collisions are le-s frequent on the richmond & danville than on j mosl any other roads entering litre yet the authorities are moving to make tiie road doubly safe from collisions and have two inventions under con sideration one is the telegraph pole signal the invention of an atlanta man and the other is a railroad clock invented by a pennsylvania in the case of the former the engin eer of any moving train can tell at exactly what spot a train coming ahead to meet him might be whether half a mile or fifty miles distant by merely glancing at the poles the signal time clock is invented to indi cate the intervening time between trains it is to be mounted similar to the danger signals and the engin eer can readily tell by glancing at the dial how much time lias elapsed since the preceding train passing that point the clock is made to run regular and show the hour just like an ordinary time piece but an ingenius device connecting the rail and clock-work throws the minute hand back to 12 when a train passes by the signal then the minute hand moves on around until the next train comes along when it drops back to 12 again should any train not be followed by another for an hour or longer period then the minute hand will pause at fifty five minutes and remain there until a passing train throws it back to 12 when it starts on as before the purpose of having the hands stop at fifty five minutes is to show that at least that much time time has elapsed since a train his gone by which is sufficient tw indicate a clear track â€” journal observer 3iay i kiss that baby ?" to a soldier far away from home there is no more touching sight than that of a baby in its mother's arms while on their way to gettysburg our

heading the second volume recently we were impressed with the facts brought out relative to the effects of the forests upon the fertility of the canaan of the scriptures the whole land at the time of the conquest by the jews was rich and fruitful the western portion was as fertile as the eastern and the country was attrac tive and desirable a land of corn and wine but the jews were unwise enough in the hill country to cut down the trees and what followed just what has occurred in all lands where the earth was denuded and a j reckless destruction of tiie forests had taken place the whole land became sterile the washings became so great that the soil was carried away and the land of beauty and fertility was converted into a land of barren ness this is the condition in the west in eastern

a i stranger knocked at the door and begged shelter for tho night the minister kind ly received him and asked him to take his place with the family and assist at their religious exercises it so happened that the question in tlie catechism which came to the stranger was that which asks : how many command ments are there f he answered elet en eleven !" exclaimed rutherford 1 am surprised that a man of your age and appearance should not know better what do you mean and he answered ; a new commandment i give unto you that ye love one another rutherford was much impressed by the answer and they retir ed to rest the next morning as he threaded his way to church through the thicket he heard among the trees the voice of the stranger at his devotions the elevation of the sentiments convinc ed him that it was no common man and on accosting him the traveler confessed that lie was no other than the great di vine archbishop usher the primate of the church of ireland who well fulfilled that new commandment which he bore to others he it was who had come in dis guise to see rutherford in the privacy of his own home side by side they pursu ed their w ay to the little church and from the
